Chicago Bulls guard Derrick Rose has been named the NBA's Rookie of the Year, according to published reports.

Two people familiar with the award confirmed to The Associated Press that Rose was the winner. Both requested anonymity as the announcement was to be made later Wednesday.

The Chicago Tribune first reported Rose had earned the honor. The team is holding a news conference at 3 p.m. ET, at which it's expected the point guard, a Chicago native, officially will receive the award.

He was good but Mayo and Gordon definitely are the better all around players especially when we look back in 3 years or so.
